The Company’s indefinite-lived and amortizable intangible assets as recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets consisted of the following as of December 31, 2012:
The amortizable intangible assets are included within other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 9. The Company performs an impairment test for goodwill and trademarks on an annual basis and more frequently if an event or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. Conditions that would trigger an impairment assessment include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in legal factors or business climate that could affect the value of the asset. The Company uses a two-step process to test goodwill for impairment. The first step is to compare the applicable reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. The Company has determined the applicable reporting unit is its wholesale segment. If the fair value of the wholesale segment is greater than its carrying value, there is no impairment. If the carrying value is greater than the fair value, then the second step must be completed to measure the amount of the impairment, if any. The second step calculates the implied fair value of the goodwill, which is compared to its carrying value. If the implied fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference. To date, the Company has never recorded an impairment charge on this goodwill. The Company tests its trademarks for impairment by comparing the fair value of each trademark to its related carrying value. Fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology. To date, the Company has never recorded an impairment charge on these trademarks. The Company recorded amortization expense for intangible assets of $273,000, $273,000 and $228,000 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Excluding the impact of any future acquisitions, the Company anticipates future amortization expense to be as follows:
